"Proportions" Dog Food Review

I'm always on the look-out for good natural dog food that is more than humdrum dry kibble. My dog Riley, recently got to sample a new food from Proportions Canine Nutrition.

Note cute picture of Riley on the box. Each box has the 3 packets of food.

The Proportions is 3 separate pouches of pre-measured Hearty Stew, Crunchy Blend using holistic dry food from Wellness, LiveSmart and Newman's Own and finally the Harvest Mix packet of fruits and veggies. I didn't need to add water because of the yummy pumpkin stew base. Yes I tasted it and it wasn't bad.  I mixed the 3 packets, let it sit a few minutes to soften the dehydrated fruits and veggies and it was ready to feed.

Did Riley like it? Riley will watch my every move when I'm preparing his breakfast and dinner. Anytime I add something new he knows it and can't wait for a taste. Because Riley is a chow hound I'm not sure he was the best subject for taste testing this food but I will say he ate every morsel and licked the bowl clean.

I really like what is in this premium holistic dog food but I LOVE what is NOT in it!



No chemical preservatives
No Artificial colors or flavors
No sugars or sweeteners
No fillers such as rice hulls
No animal by-products; this is so gross I won't go into it here. If you really want to know what goes into some dog foods read here....
No unknown fat or protein sources such as "animal fats" instead of, for example, chicken fat or chicken meal

What makes it different?
Proportions is a ‘Whole Food Nutrition Program that offers a healthy alternative to traditional feeding programs, and allows dog guardians to create a customized meal just for their dog. And it's delivered to their door each month. The shipping is already factored in the price so there's no question as what the total cost will be.

What makes  Proportions “Whole Food” unique is it offers a balanced diet featuring reduced carbs and starches with a reduced portion of high quality dry food. The meal also features increased healthy, natural proteins and vegetables via a “stew” portion and is topped off with fruits and vegetables in “harvest mix” portion of the meal.

It was fun "making" my dog's custom dog food proportions online.
Here's how it works:

If you aren't ready to feed your dog a home made dog diet, I would say the Proportions is a great option. It is custom for your dog, has home delivery so you don't get overwhelmed with the bags of dog food at your pet store.  Proportions are using human quality ingredients in their canine nutrition!
